To me , Whats your Raashee? was a novel concept and an acid test for Mr. Gowariker ...The film is based on a novel which talks about the journey of a Gujarati MBA guy in search of a perfect match .. which forms the bottom-line of the movie.
The initial credits rolling has Priyanka gyrating in 12 different avatars depicting each zodiac.
The screen lights up and the expectations soar high.
Mystique characterization and play-acting by Priyanka in the below embodiment is exemplary.
1. Aries - (Anjali) - Girl's , snort had me in splits.
2. Virgo - (Pooja) - This doctor was as fastidious as ever.
3. Scorpio - (Nandini) - True Blue Sexy Scorpio (just like me ;)
4. Libra - (Rajni) - Stone-Hearted Practical Charmer.
5. Cancer - (Hansa) - Emotional Lady to the 'T'
The eligible bachelor played by Harman Baweja brings forth his sincerity and honesty to the role and we should give him his due this time around after duds like LS2050 & Victory.
Music of the film by debutant 'Sohail Sen' has a nice easy feel particularly tracks like 'Bikhri Bikhri' and 'Jao Na' , though the Rahman stamp was sorely missed.
All in all , the film's length would be a impediment but for a breezy performance by Priyanka , its definitely a one time watch.
With such a script , one could have done wonders ....
but it ain't no Swades or Lagaan .... !
Rating : 2.5 / 5.0
